The word used in the Gospels of Jesus' occupation, tekton, although usually translated as "carpenter," was not restricted to workers in wood but could be applied to those who worked in stone, metal, or horn. Given the relative scarcity of wood in the vicinity of Nazareth, Jesus may have done more masonry than carpentry.
Well, He was the stone the builders rejected. And it is better to fall upon that rock than be crushed by it.
His Word is a hammer that breaks a rock to pieces. He predicted that not one stone would be left upon another in the house that Herod built.
He went to prepare a place for us as living stones in the House He was building for His Father. A place for His Father to dwell, among our praises. Let us not forget the quarry from which we were dug, or the Rock from which we were chiseled.
The Lord has done this, and it is marvelous in our eyes! He is good, and His love endures forever!
